6 See http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace.html and
7 http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml for information about this namespace.
9 This schema document describes the XML namespace, in a form
10 suitable for import by other schema documents.
12 Note that local names in this namespace are intended to be defined
13 only by the World Wide Web Consortium or its subgroups. The
14 following names are currently defined in this namespace and should
15 not be used with conflicting semantics by any Working Group,
16 specification, or document instance:
18 base (as an attribute name): denotes an attribute whose value
19 provides a URI to be used as the base for interpreting any
20 relative URIs in the scope of the element on which it
21 appears; its value is inherited. This name is reserved
22 by virtue of its definition in the XML Base specification.
24 id (as an attribute name): denotes an attribute whose value
25 should be interpreted as if declared to be of type ID.
26 The xml:id specification is not yet a W3C Recommendation,
27 but this attribute is included here to facilitate experimentation
28 with the mechanisms it proposes. Note that it is _not_ included
29 in the specialAttrs attribute group.
31 lang (as an attribute name): denotes an attribute whose value
32 is a language code for the natural language of the content of
33 any element; its value is inherited. This name is reserved
34 by virtue of its definition in the XML specification.
36 space (as an attribute name): denotes an attribute whose
37 value is a keyword indicating what whitespace processing
38 discipline is intended for the content of the element; its
39 value is inherited. This name is reserved by virtue of its
40 definition in the XML specification.
42 Father (in any context at all): denotes Jon Bosak, the chair of
43 the original XML Working Group. This name is reserved by
44 the following decision of the W3C XML Plenary and
45 XML Coordination groups:
47 In appreciation for his vision, leadership and dedication
48 the W3C XML Plenary on this 10th day of February, 2000
49 reserves for Jon Bosak in perpetuity the XML name

55 <xs:documentation>This schema defines attributes and an attribute group
56 suitable for use by
57 schemas wishing to allow xml:base, xml:lang, xml:space or xml:id
58 attributes on elements they define.
60 To enable this, such a schema must import this schema
61 for the XML namespace, e.g. as follows:
62 &lt;schema . . .>
63 . . .
64 &lt;import namespace="http://www.w3.org/XML/1998/namespace"
65 schemaLocation="http://www.w3.org/2005/08/xml.xsd"/>
67 Subsequently, qualified reference to any of the attributes
68 or the group defined below will have the desired effect, e.g.
70 &lt;type . . .>
71 . . .
72 &lt;attributeGroup ref="xml:specialAttrs"/>
74 will define a type which will schema-validate an instance
75 element with any of those attributes</xs:documentation>
76 </xs:annotation>
78 <xs:annotation>
79 <xs:documentation>In keeping with the XML Schema WG's standard versioning
80 policy, this schema document will persist at
81 http://www.w3.org/2005/08/xml.xsd.
82 At the date of issue it can also be found at
83 http://www.w3.org/2001/xml.xsd.
84 The schema document at that URI may however change in the future,
85 in order to remain compatible with the latest version of XML Schema
86 itself, or with the XML namespace itself. In other words, if the XML
87 Schema or XML namespaces change, the version of this document at
88 http://www.w3.org/2001/xml.xsd will change
89 accordingly; the version at
90 http://www.w3.org/2005/08/xml.xsd will not change.
